New Magazine on what and who is rocking the Midwest!
INDEPENDENT MEDIA!
INDEPENDENT MOVIES!
INDEPENDENT BANDS!
This is a non-profit magazine dedicated to who and what is rocking the Midwest. We are not biased to a certain genre of music or films, but we are focused on rock and the rock scene. We want to give unsigned and indie artists and indie flicks the recognition they deserve.
We will review material, do coverage on a show, and/or do features on bands. Though we do work with "big labeled" bands, we concentrate on the underground talent. As for films, we can set an interview with the director, cast members, etc., do a review, or some sort of feature.
One way we fundraise is by putting on concerts to benefit the magazine. Some bands that want to help support the magazine and the widespread of local music will volunteer to perform at a show that we put together. We appreciate that very much!!! This is what will be helping to keep this magazine going! For more details on this, and the "package," please drop me a message on here.
